Sweet! Thanks, cburg. You just answered a question I just asked a minute ago. I'll definitely hit them up. Thanks for your sharing your advice and experience.

and your welcome thats what we are here for, btw only reason i didnt suggest dezod for you was because you seem like someone that wants something new and bling bling

but if the alpha kit comes out soon and pricing is competetive i definately suggest dezods alpha kit over desecendant

i have to admit...thank you for being the first OP to used the search button haha. but i really cant say much more than everyone else has, all great advice here. If i still had my tc, i prob would have bought a DEZOD or Descendant....Its a little iffy but sometimes you can find great deals on used turbo kits here.

Not necessarily this but you get the idea of the savings

I dont think the shop in PA handles that type of stuff?!?! i could be wrong. I know they have at least two shops but only one of them does installs and ish!

I saw the Ptuning kits, and I have to admit - they're quite beautiful, but the price is up there! It's over $1k more than Dezod or DESCENDANT

. I know the kit is highly recommended by many in the Scion community, but I haven't really found any complaints about DESCENDANT. Plus, their kit includes a lifetime warranty, which is always a bonus

The fuel management is PnP, the tune they supply is generic. It's only meant to get you from the install to the tuner.
